I'll definitely do that. What I'm going to do is apply a moisturizer with a high amount of sea buckthorn all over my body several times a day, and deliberately be outside for a while when the sun is high. I don't burn easily, though, but my nose does, and if the skin on my nose stands the test then I'll give you the go-ahead to try it.
The person I am working with is Lyn, the owner of http://www.bunnysbath.com -- she makes a Face Cream that contains Sea Buckthorn, Raspberry, Cranberry, and Green Tea oils. I've convinced her to make a body lotion with those same ingredients. I use her Hand Balm, although I get it customized to include sea buckthorn and tamanu -- it'll be one of the things I use for my tests. She says that she'll be reformulating the Hand Balm and Face Cream to include a high concentration of sea buckthorn and tamanu oils.
I think the overseas stuff is Mexoryl or something like that. I've seen it at pharmacies around here, but because it is in a lotion that contains a lot of chemicals and preservatives, I'm staying away.
